If you are looking for a place to train on a weekly/monthly/yearly basis Carmel USA Wrestling Club offers many opportunities. We offer wrestling camps, tournaments, weight training in our state of the art weight room, wrestling practices on a 365 day basis, individual training, summer camps, fall wrestling leagues, etc. Hall Of Fame Coach Ed Pendoski and Wade McClurg and the rest of Carmel USA Wrestling Club staff welcome anyone that wants to train and get better- The goal of Carmel USA Wrestling Club is to make available opportunities for wrestlers to improve skill level and broaden wrestling experiences in a fun, competitive atmosphere while inspiring our student-athletes to continue their wrestling aspirations! Currently, since it is wrestling season we focus only on grades K-8 in the club room, Carmel USA Wrestling Club has club practices with K-8 guys on Tuesdays and Thursdays and invite only Sundays. White Group (beginners) 6:00pm-6:45pm, Blue Group (advanced) 6:45pm-8:15pm. You can sign up for membership of CUSAWC through our website www.carmelusawrestling.org. We offer group rates with club dues if you want to bring a group of kids from the same team to train with us. While our enrollment is mainly made up of Carmel residents because of our location, we also have had wrestlers from 10+ different school districts that supplemented their training with us in year 2015. We have a traveling team group with our CUSAWC kids called Greyhound Elite that practice a 3rd day during the week on Sunday nights... It's fun to coach a group of young bucks that can drill like really good high school wrestlers! In February-October we will workout on Wednesdays and Thursdays with invite elite practice on Sundays still, instead of Tuesday's and Thursday's. Then, in March we welcome the high school group back and we will also have the K-8 group going. We offer strength training programs in the spring, summer, and fall with our elementary/middle school kids along with wrestling practice. And we weight lift before we wrestle with the high school group on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Under the direction of first-year head coach Tony Ersland and assistant coaches Zach Tanelli and Tyrel Todd, the Purdue wrestling program turned a new corner in 2014-15. Numerous program firsts were established and records were touched, putting the Boilermakers on the national radar for seasons to come. Eight Purdue wrestlers, including all five senior starters, received an automatic berth to the 2015 NCAA Championships, held March 19-21 in St. Louis, Missouri. It had been a dozen years since the Boilermakers qualified eight to the NCAA Championships and it was only the third time in program history eight advanced.

Japanese wrestlers come to Carmel By RICHIE HALL Reporter Sports Editor Summers for the Carmel USA Wrestling Club have had an international flavor recently. This summer alone, the Carmel Club has hosted two teams from different sides of Asia. In June, the CUSAWC welcomed a team from Turkey, and this past week, the club hosted a team from Gunma Prefecture in Japan. Prefectures are equivalent to states in the USA; Gunma is located in the central part of Japan. The Japanese wrestlers, along with their coach, Shinji Morise, and an interpreter, arrived in Indiana at 5:45 a.m. Tuesday. Carmel coach Ed Pendoski noted that the travel time was rather long: The wrestlers flew 10 hours to get from Japan to Los Angeles, then another four hours to make it to Indiana. Some of the Carmel wrestlers traveled to Japan last summer as part of the Indiana State Wrestling Association's Cul- tural Exchange, so they were aware how involved the travel is. "We had today scheduled kind of free, because we knew going there, you're pretty tired after traveling for 20 hours," said Pendoski. But the Japanese wrestlers said they weren't tired. "And so we went shopping, and then we went and had a pool party, and all the Japanese kids fell asleep at the pool," said Pendoski. Everyone was awake by the evening, and the Japanese wrestlers joined their Carmel counterparts for a practice at Carmel High School. Pendoski conducted the class, while Morise observed and videotaped. "I will distribute to their parents, be- cause they don't know what's going on," said Morise through an interpreter. "And then we can show them how we practice in Indiana." Morise said that participating in the Cultural Exchange is "a valuable experience," and that students will "learn a lot from this, and utilize the experience for their future." The students get a chance to sightsee around Carmel and the Indianapo- lis area, participate in a competition at Zionsville Community High School, and also stay at a host family's house during the week. Morise said that since they are house- guests, they must learn to communicate in English. Reporter photo by Richie Hall Carmel wrestler Jack Eiteljorg (left) practices with Japanese wrestler Haruki Kanai during a Tuesday evening practice at Carmel High School. The Japanese wrestlers from Gunma Prefecture spent the past week in Carmel as part of the Indiana State Wrestling Association’s Cultural Exchange. More pictures appear on Page 8. "In Japan, there's not a lot of opportunity to communicate in English," said Morise. One of the Japanese wrestlers, Haruki Kanai, said that he enjoyed fishing during his first day in Indiana. After the Tuesday practice, he said he noticed that the wres- tling techniques of the U.S. and Japan are different. "It was a good learning experience for me," said Kanai. Pendoski believes his wrestlers are get- ting much out of the experience as well. "This is an amazing learning experi- ence, and I think in the last three years, I think this is the fourth cultural team that we've hosted, and we've traveled once," said Pendoski. "The benefits of wrestling are good, but there are things that the kids will remember forever."

We just finished up a great weekend of wrestling in the blue room at Carmel. Carmel USA Wrestling Club was fortunate to get Alex Tsirtsis to come run 5 sessions for us this weekend. Over 30 kids in the room and 6 coaches from around the state. 1 HS State Champ, a handful of HS State Placewinners, a handful of HS State Qualifiers, and a handful of HS Semi State Qualifiers. Also had 6 elementary kids come get better. It's always great to spend time around Alex. He's a killer on the wrestling mat but also an amazing coach. His attention to details with technique and being able to teach is phenomenal. Happy Birthday Tseratisis' HA!
